A mass shooting is being reported out of Buffalo at the Tops [supermarket] at 1275 Jefferson Ave, Buffalo, NY. According to unverified reports, a shooter was taken out by gunfire. However, police say they have one person in custody. There are reports that “bodies [are] everywhere.” At least nine individuals have been reported shot, more than five of them in the head. At least one fatality has been reported.
It looks like the answer is probably yes. He threatened a school shooting last year, and was sent for psychiatric help.

Re: 434 - Known running “joke” using Hyde’s picture.
Re: No, I won’t “Bank on it”.
This kid is mentally crushed. He threatened to shoot at a school graduation previously. He appears to have had unfettered access to the Internet and minimal parent supervision.
Not hardly
yes shooting at anyone
It’s faded from my memory. I remember Hertel, Delaware, Main Street, downtown, and a few other places.
He is still alive?
I figured all the bad asses in the hood would of took him out.
You mean the water that made the frogs gay???
“People say “Amish” because they don’t have the balls to say “blacks”.”
I use the term “royals” or “royal blood”.
The reason—if the rules that apply to other people don’t apply to you or you get special treatment just because of your genetic lineage, then you are royalty.
Re: 189 - I want to know. Where in the hell are the parents in all this?
What guardrails and rules did they have for their son? He seems to have had unfettered Internet access - and that without context and lack of critical thinking skills is a recipe for problems.
A note that based on his manifesto, this loser bought a NY MSR, which had been made NY compliant post-production, then modified it to accept a detachable magazine, and made some other modifications.
So the MSR he used was NY compliant - when he bought it.
I dont want to hear anything about the white supremist when NOTHING was said about the black supremist that shot and wounded and killed those people on the subway in NYC
No, not the way it turned out.
The word “was” is used here a lot. I’m wondering if the shooter in this case didn’t write this. On top of that this does not look like something an 18 year old would write.
Did you intend to survive the attack?
Yes, but death was a definite possibility. These situations are chaotic and virtually
impossible to control, no matter the planning. Survival was a better alternative to death in order
to further spread my ideals by media coverage and to deplete resources from the state by my own
imprisonment.
It’s already been established he copy-pasted big chunks of his “manifesto” from the screed written by the Christchurch shooter (New Zealand mosque shooter). He also allegedly admired Dylann Roof, the neo-Nazi kid who shot up the black church in Charleston in 2015. He probably copy-pasted more chunks from garbage he found on 4chan, where he got into this sick obsession.
Given that he supposedly got sectioned last year after threatening to shoot up high school graduation ceremony, the parents had to know he had real mental issues that centered on violence and mass shooting fantasies.
Maybe they convinced themselves it was just a phase, or he was just joking or whatever. Or maybe they tried to get him help, but once he turned 18 were unable to force it on him. I wIsh I could remember now which case it was, but some years ago there was a tragic case of a mentally ill young man whose family members knew he was a ticking time bomb and went to great lengths trying to get him into mental health treatment, but the laws were against them, and sure enough, the kid wound up killing a number of his fellow human beings.
I can’t help wondering where he got the money for the fancy guns, mods, body armor, etc., though. How much did all that stuff he bought cost?
“he copy-pasted big chunks of his “manifesto””
I guess we will have to ban all computers now....to save lives and keep us safe.
